Written by leadbetter<br>Available on the album reg dwight's piano goes pop<br><br>When I was a little bitty baby<br>My momma done rocked me in the cradle<br>In them old cottonfields back home<br><br>It was back in louisiana<br>Just about a mile from texarkana<br>In them old cottonfields back home<br><br>Let me tell you now well I got me in a mess<br>I caught a nail in my tire doing lickety splits<br>I had to walk a long long way to town<br><br>Came along a nice old man<br>Well he had a hammer<br>Wait a minute mister, can you get me some direction<br>I'm gonna wanna be right off for home<br><br>Oh let them cotton balls get rotten<br>I got you baby, who needs cotton<br>In them old cottonfields back home<br><br>Well it sure feels good to breathe the air back home<br>You should have seen their faces when they seen how I'd grown<br>In them old cotton fields back home
